Arg, sorry I missed this - the problem is that not all node-like environments need a hashbang. As this code used to be it was up to the creator of the preamble to include the hashbang if they wanted one - the idea was that the hashbang was just the default preamble in a node environment.

I've replied to the list addressing the original motivation for this patch, but I'd very much like to see it reconsidered (except for the test, which is great! though of course I'd want it updated for the behavior I think is correct ;-D )
